Abstract

Sample carrier includes a thermal-control block having an active surface and an outer surface that face in opposite directions. The active surface has a series of mounting areas that are distributed along a length of the thermal-control block. The sample carrier also includes chamber cells that are configured to be disposed over respective mounting areas of the series of mounting areas. The sample carrier also includes a removable cover body that is configured to be coupled to the thermal-control block with the chamber cells therebetween. The thermal-control block and the chamber cells are shaped to form corresponding reaction chambers therebetween. The cover body and the thermal-control block are in fixed positions with respect to each other to form a unitary structure. The reaction chambers have corresponding inlets that open in a common direction to an exterior of the sample carrier.
